Sounds like summer climo

I was talking to Scott about this yesterday ... there's a non-linear signal for ridge eruption along 90 to 100W coming from the numerical telecon spread  (convergent), between the 6th and 10th or so.   That's still the case.   Since then, we're getting ensemble means burgeoning.  This being the 12z EPS mean centered on 270 

Notice the UK heat node's migrated to Scandinavia ... This appears to be a complete rotation of the base-line wave#.  

I suspect the operational more linear indicators may "detect" this physical constructive interference and start emerging a better heat signal.  I'm also finding it interesting that the CPC's decided to flip the signal to an 'over-top' heat suggestion in their D8-14.   They may be on to this.  This signal would be above the climate signal - even though it's funny to zap Weatherwiz... I don't mean to devalue the necessity to do that -

Stein dead and buried on the 18z gfs

Looking at guidance I think the storm Fri/Sat will produce more QPF over a wider area than is currently being forecasted.

eep trough over the eastern CONUS will have a series of stronger
embedded shortwaves as it builds S. First in the series will feature
heights as low as 534 dm, or about 3-5 sigma below climatology!
upper level disturbance will also feature quite the cold pool
with 850mb temps around 0C. In terms of sensible weather,
Saturday will be quite a cold and raw day with highs in the
upper 40s to low 50s for much of the interior. Some guidance
including the NAM even shows a non-zero chance for a few
snowflakes under heavier precip in the Worcester Hills and
Berkshires. Any wintry precipitation would be confined to the
coldest part of the cold pool and with heavier precipitation
rates. In short, this will not be widespread wintry event.

18z GFS a bit more wintry for  Saturday

I’ll forfeit summer if we can forfeit winter.
